Was just on the radio, dropping the permanent opponents and new schedule rotation on Tuesday.

Full schedule with dates will be released in December

As long as we have LSU and State I’ll be happy. If it’s 3 permanent then LSU, State and Arky would be perfect for us

Ideally I want the OG SEC West + Florida as permanents. Since we’re limited to only 3 for the purposes of this exercise, give me OM, Bama, Florida. Though I object to any year where at least one of Miss St or Auburn is not on the schedule

Sadly we will likely get stuck with aggy.

I'd like Arkansas, obviously Texas, and then someone from the east. LSU would be cool too if they absolutely need proximity.

I keep seeing Mizzou thrown out there for OU, and I really hope that isn't the case. We've already had nearly 100 games for that to become a rivalry, and it didn't happen. Why force something that almost nobody wants?

Who are the hardest teams to figure out the 3 permanent opponents?

Are they trying to make them "balanced" as well or does that not matter?

Could Florida have LSU/UGA/Tenn?

I like this, but something tells me we're getting one of the Texas schools.

As long as you play Alabama, you'll automatically have the toughest schedule.

Arky


OM-Arky needs to be permanent, always seems to be a fun game

I would say that it probably has to be balanced, because that would put Florida at a disadvantage over the teams that got Vandy or Kentucky on their schedule every year.

I would be good with this. And move the Arky game back to the Friday after Thanksgiving like God intended, Sucks to lose out on the Florida game.

This doesn't solve the Thanksgiving weekend problem.

Arkansas makes the most sense for LSU, then Texas v A&M and OU v Mizzou (although they should play Bedlam and Border War every season, imo)

I’d be shocked if Bama didn’t have Auburn and Tennessee making their third permanent someone like Vandy. Don’t see them getting Auburn, UT and LSU

They need State

And Georgia needs Carolina

I'm hoping for Tennessee, Vanderbilt, and South Carolina for Kentucky. I would be OK with Missouri or Mississippi State in place of South Carolina, but not in place of UT or VU.
